PIGEON FRIENDS sharing a hobby in an old-fashioned way It is Saturday, October 22, 2016, the day we have been
looking forward to and was already marked for months on our calendar

FORM YOUR BREEDING PENS NOW! It is early February and it is really high time you

THE LIMOUSIN CHICKENS We have found another special
French breed, the Poule de Limousines, also called Coq de pêche. At first
glance an ordinary land fowl, compact and sturdy. However, if we look
closer at the rooster, the thin, long and abundant ornamental feathers
immediately catch the eye. By : Dirk de Jong (NL) 11 pages - 1,4 MB

An international Owl Pigeon festival in Belgium The president of the European Frill Club was very
pleased with this large number of Owl pigeons in 21 breeds and was rightly
proud that 13 countries had participated in the show. As an indication
of the international popularity and tradition of the Owl pigeons,
at the grand awards ceremony and banquet on the Saturday it was said that
fanciers from 17 countries participated in or visited the show. By : Remco de Koster (DE) 6 pages - 600 kB

CARNEAU-CLUB Français The Carneau is part of the
French heritage and over the years they managed to keep the body type almost
constant at a weight between 600 and 675 grams, and at the same time have
been able to maintain a beautiful colour in this utility pigeon, although
the marking of rosettes and white lower back remains a challenge. By :

BREEDING LACED AND PARTRIDGE WYANDOTTES As long as Black laced silver Wyandottes

breed in Germany have perhaps even pushed their thumbs stronger than
others. 23 collections were announced. By : Axel
